Unanswered: Selecting in Forms

Hi, i'm new to using access forms and am experiencing some trouble trying to select a record and display it.
In my form i have a textbox where i enter an order number, then when i click a submit button i want to search a table for this record and if it finds it, then display the records 2 fields.

Assuming the table/query you are searching is the RecordSource for your form then let the wizard help you put a ComboBox on your form that will "look up a record". Then look in the AfterUpdate event of the new ComboBox for the code you need to get your Submit button to work.
